Citigroup Inc. has suspended Jan Skarbek, one of the UK’s most high-profile investment bankers, pending an investigation into allegations of misconduct, people with knowledge of the matter said.

The bank is looking into a complaint about comments that Skarbek allegedly made to a female employee during a recent staff getaway, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information is private.
